>George R.R. Martin on his “abysmal” relationship with ‘HOUSE OF THE DRAGON’ showrunner Ryan Condal:>“It’s worse than rocky. It’s abysmal. I hired Ryan. I thought Ryan and I were partners. And we were all through the first season. I would read early drafts of the scripts. I would give notes. He would change some things. It was working really well — I thought.>Then we got into season two, and he basically stopped listening to me. I would give notes, and nothing would happen. Sometimes he would explain why he wasn’t doing it. Other times, he would tell me, ‘Oh, OK, yeah, I’ll think about that.’ It got worse and worse, and I began to get more and more annoyed. Finally, it got to a point where I was told by HBO that I should submit all my notes to them and they would give Ryan our combined notes.”Wow, everyone is just shitting on this mans work.
who gives a fuck about GoT at this point? the show's ending was disastrous and it's clear the books will never be finished and even if they were everyone would hate them no matter how good they are simply because of how much time it took for them to be written

>>217360304He rejected George's suggestion of quietly turning HOtD into WILD CARDS: THE SHOW between seasons.And George took that personally.

>>217360304Based I hope next hbo just tells him to go finish the books next time he comes around.
>>217360304George always has some excuse for why it turns out shit and its never his fault. If he actually cared he could easily have negotiated more editorial control ESPECIALLY given how tthe last heap of shit ended, but he doesnt want that, he wants an out when hes exposed for the fraud he is.
>>217360304>Finally, it got to a point where I was told by HBO that I should submit all my notes to them and they would give Ryan our combined notes.”I'm guessing HBO network executives were the problem, as they wanted to stretch the show out and told Condal to burn up time with Daemon wandering around Harrenhal while tripping balls.
